1st Ear Infection


Olivia has her first ear infection. Poor baby. She isn't fussy. She just has been pulling on her ear and putting it on/up against things. In the pic, she's laying it on the floor (she's surrounded by her new toys!! Thanks everyone). She started right after her birthday party ,and it was officially diagnosed yesterday! Hopefully, she won't get anymore!!

Goin' swingin'!!






Olivia loves going to the park, especially when she can go on the swings!! She wasn't too sure of the bouncy horse though.

1st Birthday Party!












We had a big 1st birthday party for Olivia on Saturday. Thank you to all of our family and friends that came. We had a blast. Olivia is so blessed with so many great people in her life (us too!!). Here are so pics of the big day.

Happy 1st Birthday Olivia Rose!!






Olivia turned 1 year old on Wednesday! I can't believe how fast time flies. She went to the doctor for her check-up. She weighed 20 lbs, 4 oz (30 percentile), and she was 30.75 inches tall (95 percentile!!!). She's so tall for her age. It's hard to believe that she was almost 4 weeks early and her weight & height were in the 2nd percentile!


We went out to dinner to celebrate. She wasn't too sure of the waitresses & waiters singing to her, but she did love the cupcake!! She had also tried 1/2 of a cupcake earlier at school/daycare. She especially liked the cake part.

Going to the Apple Orchard






We visited the apple orchard with our friends Lisa & Dan. We got apples, picked our pumpkins, and went on a wagon ride. We had a lot of fun. Plus, Olivia really like the caramel apple sucker...thanks to Frank!

Football Baby




The past 2 weekends Olivia has been rooting for her favorite football teams (Notre Dame, Purdue, and Western Michigan). We went to South Bend for the Notre Dame Vs. Purdue last weekend and went to Kalamazoo this weekend for WMU's Homecoming. Her Uncle James was on the Homecoming Court. She's had a lot of fun cheering and watching the game and fans!
